The Origin of our civilization: The Constellation of Orion

Why is this
pattern of stars repeated in monuments throughout the ancient world? Why did
ancient man consider Orion as one of the most prominent constellations in the
sky?

Orion has
been crucial to ancient man in the past, and these long-lost civilizations paid
tribute to the gods of Orion by constructing incredible monuments and placing
them in specific locations on Earth mimicking the sky.

Astronomers
refer to Orion as M42, but ancient humanity knew about this constellation
thousands of years before modern day astronomy, without telescopes such as the
Hubble. The questions are how and why? Orion’s is a place where stars are born
and astronomers refer to it as a “Stellar Nursery.”

The Orion
constellation is one of the most prominent star formations in the night sky and
is one of the most famous constellations today, easily identified in the clear
night sky. It is named after the Greek demigod Orion in the 8th century B.C.
When you connect the stars; they form the head, shoulders, belt, and feet of a
man. The three principal stars in the constellation are Alnilam, Alnitak, and
Mintaka which form the belt stars of Orion.

According to
Greek mythology, Orion was a giant huntsman whom Zeus placed among the stars as
the constellation of Orion.

Ancient
sources tell several different stories about Orion; there are two major
versions of his birth and several versions of his death. The most important
recorded episodes are his birth somewhere in Boeotia, his visit to Chios where
he met Merope and was blinded by her father, Oenopion, the recovery of his
sight at Lemnos, his hunting with Artemis on Crete, his death by the bow of
Artemis or the sting of the giant scorpion which became Scorpio, and his
elevation to the heavens. Most ancient sources omit some of these episodes and several
tell only one.

These
various incidents may originally have been independent, unrelated stories and
it is impossible to tell whether omissions are simple brevity or represent a
real disagreement.- Wikipedia

Egyptian
mythology actually suggests that the gods descended from the belt stars of
Orion and Sirius and they believed that from Sirius and Orion came beings in
the form of humans, they called them Osiris and Isis, and it was them who
actually instigated the human race.

Sirius and
Orion are perhaps one of the most important constellations in the night sky,
not only for the Greeks and Egyptians but also for other ancient civilizations
in Babylonia, South and Central America and even for Native American tribes in
North America.

Is it just a
coincidence that the placement of some of the most important monuments on Earth
appears to be accurately placed to mimic Orion’s belt in the sky? How could
there be similar structures pointing to Orion built by civilizations located
thousands of kilometers apart, who according to modern day scholars were not
connected in any way? Is this an incredible cosmic coincidence? Or is there an
otherworldly connection to this phenomenon, phenomena that could clarify our
very own origins. The Aztecs, Maya, Ancient Egyptians, and other ancient
civilizations point towards Orion.

The ancient
Egyptians linked Osiris with creation, and some researchers believe that Osiris
and Orion are actually the same phenomena.

In Egypt,
pyramid texts discovered that were carved into the walls of pyramids dating
back to 2400 B.C. speak ofEgyptian
pharaoh Unas who ruled for 30 years and finally making his final voyage to the
star system Orion.

According to
some historians, it has been identified as the Biblical star Mazzaroth and the
Dogon tribe in the Sahara desert have held this star among their most precious
locations in the sky, but it is in Ancient Egypt where we find a vast history
about this binary system (What the naked eye perceives as a single star is
actually a binary star system, consisting of a white main-sequence star of
spectral type A1V, termed Sirius A, and a faint white dwarf companion of
spectral type DA2, called Sirius B. The distance separating Sirius A from its
companion varies between 8.2 and 31.5 AU). In ancient Egyptian mythology,
Hathor was closely connected and identified to Sirius but then again so was
Isis.

The
Descending Passage pointed to the pole star Alpha Draconis, circa 2170-2144
BCE. This was the North Star at that point in time. No other star has aligned
with the passage since then. The southern shaft in the King’s Chamber pointed
to the star Al Nitak (Zeta Orionis) in the constellation Orion, circa 2450 BCE.
And as we mentioned before, the Orion constellation was associated with the
Egyptian god Osiris.

No other
star aligned with this shaft during that time in history. The apex of the
Pyramid corresponds to the geographical pole, while the perimeter of the
Pyramid corresponds to the equator, both in proper scale.Each flat face of the Pyramid was designed to
represent one curved quarter of the northern hemisphere (a spherical quadrant
of 90°).

The
construction of Teotihuacán was attributed to the Quinametzin Giants;
Quinametzin(Náhuatl), a race of giants who, legend says, populated the world
during the previous era and whose survivors were hidden in those days. “The
Quinametzin were created during the time of the “Sun of Rain” and its ruler was
Tlaloc.”

Sirius is
also ancient Egypt’s inspiration for one of its first Calendars. In the
Egyptian Sirius calendar, the year began with the helical rising of Sirius.

The true
companion-star of Sirius, Sirius B, is made of super-dense matter which is
heavier than any normal matter in the universe and the weight of this tiny star
is the same as that of a gigantic normal star.

The Dogon
also, as we know, say that Sirius B is ‘heavy’ and they speak of its ‘weight.’

It is
absorbing that the Babylonians describe Orion both as a constellation and a
supreme being, and he is referred to as the “Loyal Shepherd of Heaven” They
called the constellation of Orion “Sipazi Ana” which some researchers translate
as “the shepherd of Anu” or “the shepherd of Heaven” because Anu was seen as
the god of Heaven.

The
Babylonian star catalogs describe the precise movements of various celestial
bodies, and according to some researchers, these clay tablets provide proof
that the ancient civilization of Babylon obtained celestial knowledge from star
travelers, extraterrestrial beings that came to Earth in the remote past. The
Babylonian star catalogs are a collection of information with extremely
accurate mathematical equations and more importantly, the distance between
planets and archaeologists and researchers are baffled and cannot answer the
question how a civilization in the past could have had this kind of knowledge.

Scientists
said on Thursday they recorded particles travelling faster than light - a
finding that could overturn one of Einstein's fundamental laws of the universe.
Antonio Ereditato, spokesman for the international group of researchers, saidthat measurements taken over three years showed neutrinos pumped from CERN near
Geneva to Gran Sasso in Italy had arrived 60 nanoseconds quicker than light
would have done.

“We
have high confidence in our results. We have checked and rechecked for anything
that could have distorted our measurements but we found nothing," he said.
"We now want colleagues to check them independently.” If
confirmed, the discovery would undermine Albert Einstein's 1905 theory of
special relativity, which says that the speed of light is a "cosmic
constant" and that nothing in the universe can travel faster. That
assertion, which has withstood over a century of testing, is one of the key
elements of the so-called Standard Model of physics, whic…

NASA’s Kepler Space
Telescope discovered an Earth-like planet circling a nearby star within the
Goldilocks zone of our galaxy. Kepler-186f is around 500 light-years from Earth
in the Cygnus constellation. The habitable zone, also identified as the
Goldilocks zone, is the area around a star within which planetary-mass objects
with enough atmospheric pressure can sustain liquid water at their surfaces.

While it has been
projected that there are at least 40 billion Earth-sized planets circling in
our Milky Way Galaxy, this specific finding is labelled the first Earth-sized
planet to be discovered in the habitable zone of another star. What does this mean?In addition to
Kepler-186f, there are 4 other planets that circle a nearby star within the
Kepler-186f system. What this means is that if the neighbouring star to this
planet is just like our Sun, then the likelihood of life on this planet
exponentially increases.

planet where life survives – Earth. When we hunt for lif…

The reason why certain countries looks bigger or smaller than others is because of something called the Mercator Projection. Putting a 3D planet on a two-dimensional map was something of a challenge for early cartographers and so a Flemish geographer and cartographer named Gerardus Mercator came up with a solution. In 1569 he designed a map that could be accurately used for navigation purposes, but the downside was that his system distorted the size of objects depending on their position relative to the equator. Because of this, landmasses like Antarctica and Greenland appeared much larger than they actually are.

To show how incorrect our understanding of country sizes is, a website called thetruesize.com lets you move landmasses into different locations. Bored Panda has played a bit on this site, and this is what we found. #1 US Moved Down Next To Australia Looks Unbelievably Small
